• Tarea:
1. Make a personalized Spanish-English vocabulary list of University Majors (Áreas de concentración) y related professions. These should be areas of interest to you. Minimum of 15 items (Spanish-English pair = 1 item). I suggest you use the on-line dictionary on your ‘helpful’ websites handout.
2. Have your book covered by Friday: strong cover that protects the edges, corners and the binding on the back spine.
